I've seen corruption in the police. Government. Hospitals. Do you support immediately shuttering those offices with no replacements?

There is corruption everywhere. But do you deny that these organizations by-and-large provided aid and therefore saves the lives of folks who may have otherwise died from illness?

This doesn't make corruption OK. But he tore out a lifeline for some people without giving them an alternative way to get aid.
